Re: What do you miss?
Exactly, where we were in Lancashire and Scotland we were lucky enough to be able to buy icecream from small local dairies. the sticky toffee pudding icecream from a small dairynear Dumfries was quite possibly the best icecream I have EVER eaten (and the size of my arse I have eaten plenty!!)
Thankfully it is now available in Australia, although in limited flavours.

I defo seem to be on my own about the chocolate. I actually get Cherryripes sent over to me in the UK.
UK Icecream is better, but I miss the Giant Sandwich specifically.
On the other hand I'll miss ..
Friends and the inlaws.
Cheap interesting cars.
Everything else is available in Perth if you know where to look (curries, ciders, clothes)

Re: What do you miss?
We had fantastic ice cream recently, especially in Devon and Cornwall. We don't have a great choice of ice cream brands in Perth. I've got my new ice cream machine and will start churning when it warms up a bit.

Re: What do you miss?
I did not realise just how much I would miss friends and family.I guess when you have problems then you really notice that you are alone.I do have friends here but they all have their own lives to live and it is not the same as friends and family that you have known for years.Sue.
